One of his most accomplished and controversial early works, \u003cem\u003eThe Adjuster\u003c\/em\u003e, is a dark drama about the complex and intense relationship between an insurance adjuster and his clients.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this accessible analysis, Tom McSorley traces the genesis, production, and reception of Egoyan's fourth feature film, from its Cannes Film Festival premiere to its North American commercial release. The book locates \u003cem\u003eThe Adjuster\u003c\/em\u003e in the larger context of Canadian cinema history's peculiar and often troubled evolution, and offers a provocative interpretation of the film's unique analysis of the malaise of materialism in North American culture. Richly illustrated and featuring new interview material with Egoyan himself, this study in the Canadian Cinema series offers an insightful review of one of Atom Egoyan's most searching, unsettling films.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface: Intimate Distance\u003cbr\u003e Welcome to Canada\u003cbr\u003e Out of the Ashes\u003cbr\u003e Before the Fire\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eThe Adjuster\u003c\/em\u003e: Labyrinths of Solitude\u003cbr\u003e Arrivals\u003cbr\u003e Departures\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Production Notes\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52693183594776,"sku":"9781442610484","price":18.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/atom-egoyans-the-adjuster-paperback-softback-9781442610484","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
